Based on the traditional 'We're Going on a Lion Hunt' rhyme, the delightful illustrations and read-aloud story will be a huge hit with all fans of the classic We're Going on a Bear Hunt. We're Going on an Egg Hunt is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Laura Hughes. It is a book about a warren of rabbits going on an egg hunt. As it is the first day of the Easter long weekend, I thought reading this book would be apropos. The use of flaps is particularly enjoyable when combined with an egg hunt. Children will enjoy lifting the flaps which are fairly sturdy and should survive small hands well. There are surprises underneath some of them and the chance to count upwards to ten as well.

The text is simplistic and lyrical. It is written in the similar style of "We're Going on a Bear Hunt", which followed the rhythm and style of the original book rather well. The illustrations are depicted rather well, using light pastel colors that are notable for the Easter holidays.
